The Charlemagne International Prize is considered one of the most honorable awards in Europe. Since 1950, it has been awarded annually in Aachen to those who have made an outstanding contribution to the unification of Europe. The honorary title is accompanied by a certificate and a gold medal.
Among the honorees are many former and current heads of state: Emmanuel Macron (France), Donald Tusk (Poland), the late German Chancellor Helmut Kohl, former US President Bill Clinton and former British Prime Minister Tony Blair.
Pope Francis and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy also received the award.
The award is named in honor of Charlemagne (748-814), whose empire covered a large part of Western Europe. He often lived in Aachen, which is now located directly on the border with Belgium and the Netherlands.
